The Royal Highness - C25

Xiang Ye’s eyes became misty and his expression became faintly sad. He said: “Mother, that was the Hall I built for Ruo Yao.”

Of course the empress dowager knew this, but the emperor couldn’t think this way. Even the empress dowager, who didn’t understand politics, knew that being an emperor was far inferior to being the king of the Jizhou. She was far inferior to being the empress dowager.

From the first time he saw her, he had lost his composure, just like when he had first seen her. That year, when they first saw each other after their marriage, Xiang Ye had already fallen in love with his own wife. However, he always felt that it was an extremely embarrassing thing for a man to display his love for a woman at first sight. But at that time, he was still too young.

The empress dowager did not get angry when she saw Qian Jin dressed in white in the daytime. In the old lady’s opinion, it was better if she didn’t wear it, but she still had to ask for the emperor’s sake. Qian’er did not plan to hide this either, but she didn’t want to reveal it to the empress dowager, so she handed over a letter that came from an unknown place, which was proof of Zhang Shangfu’s crime.

“Zhang Shangfu embezzled some money from Shang Guan Office and was threatened by his writing this letter, ordering her to prepare white clothes for chenqie. Zhang Shangfu panicked and followed along, the clothes were secretly sewn in her room by the palace maids beside her, that child’s martial arts are really good, Zhang Shangfu said, and always wanted to train her to become the successor to Shang Zhenjie.” “This concubine has only been here for three days, and the wedding was set all of a sudden about ten days ago. The person who threatened Zhang Shangfu definitely did not want to humiliate him, he just wanted to humiliate the harem. In the past, matters of the palace have always been left to you and the Consort Shu.

Her Majesty did not think it advisable to keep that person any longer, but she frankly hoped that Her Majesty would give her a favor and that everyone who remained in the service would follow her lead. On the other hand, the people of the palace would surely resent him. If he was not wearing clothes, then everything would be fine. Therefore, even if they did not dare show it on their faces, it would still be a foregone conclusion.

Seeing that her daughter-in-law had the awareness of being a queen, the empress dowager was relieved. She also heard that the Empress was extremely peaceful in private, like a fairy. She was indifferent to the Emperor and seemed to ignore the six palaces. Although it had only been two or three days and word had already spread across the entire Palace, Ya’er was still a considerate and gentle daughter-in-law in front of her.

Perhaps in the eyes of some people, the empress might seem somewhat changeable, perhaps even two-faced. However, the kind-hearted empress dowager felt that this was merely a person’s true nature. She had always had the most natural dispositions when it came to different people, and it was always more real than those who wore masks everywhere.

This matter had been spread throughout the palace for a long time. The empress was nearly pushed down by the Emperor, but due to the appearance of the Consort Shu, no one dared to speak carelessly about it. Even if the rumors were not spread, it could not cover up the fact that the empress was at odds with him.

The emperor still went to the Palace of Peace that night. Everyone could tell that the empress wasn’t liked. However, Xiang Ye did not continue to look for trouble with Yu’er. That night, Yu’er did not have to wait for the arrival of the Emperor, and after washing up early, she went to sleep.

Even the elegance and elegance seemed inconceivable. The empress slept soundly every night, a person who seemed to be preoccupied with his own matters, but in reality, everything was very simple in her heart.

In order to make up for the loss of Xiao’er in upper yang palace on the day of their wedding, most people had not even seen the empress before and had specially arranged this banquet. No matter what, they wanted to let the imperial family see for themselves her beautiful and noble daughter-in-law.

During tonight’s feast, Qian’er would not wear a simple red dress anymore. The beautiful phoenix robe was placed one by one in the middle of the Hall.
